Apple sued an independent iPhone repair shop owner and lost

Motherboard:

The specifics of Huseby’s legal case apply only in Norway, of course, but his case speaks to a problem faced by independent iPhone repair shops around the world. Apple’s use of the legal system and trademark law turns average repair professionals into criminals and helps the company corner the repair market for Apple products.

This is just one of many cases that will need to be adjudicated before the issue is settled but I think, in the long run, Apple will lose this fight.
